My Dog Kayla And Me

Chapter 4 An Unbreakable Bond Between Friends

Chavez's POV slowly things go by really fast sometimes almost too fast for me anyway I had been feeling down lately and I haven't been myself as well I was sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast and Steve started doing his usual crap and I was not in the mood I had sat there feeling miserable maybe I was coming down with something while I was trying to eat my breakfast Steve started hacking on me

Looks like Chavez is being a poor sport Steve committed laughing at me

Shut up Steve I'm not in the mood for your crap I replied back sharply

Oh like I'm so scared of you Chavez you're nothing but coward just like your father was Steve replied back

You don't know anything about my father or my mother for that matter and how dare you say that about me I could take this knife and slice your throat if I wanted to so just shut up and leave me alone! I shouted then getting up from the table and running out of the house before anybody could get a word out

I ran into the woods there was another hideout place that I could go to be alone I was so angry at the world I sat on a hill I pull out the picture of my parents I miss them so much I remember that day I lost my father when my parents had me they decided to raise me off the Reservation at least that's what my mother wanted I was 10 years old when my father died at the hands of Murphy&Dolan and their men as well as the law

Flashback:
Chavez's POV: I was outside with my father learning how to shoot a gun in case I ever need to my mother was busy making lunch for us I was happy boy and I love spending time with my father

Okay Jose remember how I taught you my father said

I nodded to him and then I took aim and fired at the target but I missed I looked up at my father ashamed I was expecting him to get mad but he didn't instead he just put his hand on my shoulder

It's alright we'll work on it don't worry Jose you'll be a crack shot in no time like your old man my father said trying to cheer me up

Everything was going good until sheriff Brady and Murphy&Dolan as well as their men and the law showed up my mother had come out of the house she stood behind me I knew something was wrong but I couldn't put my finger on

Good afternoon gentlemen my father greeted them

Good afternoon Martín Martín Mr.Murphy and Mr.Dolan are complaining about cattle being stolen quiet frankly Martín they think you're behind it Sheriff Bradly said

I've done no such thing I've never stolen anything in my life how dare they say that about me I'am a decorative war veteran and I will not stand for this my father angrily said

Well then I guess you leave us no choice Mr.Dolan said pointing a gun at my father

Dad look out I shouted to him

Martín! My mother screamed

But it was too late Dolan shot my father in the chest killing him instantly I watched my father as he dropped to the ground my mother and I raced towards him but he was dead I cried as my mother held me in her arms and I've picked up a gun since that day

End of flashback

I sat on the hill I was sitting on for awhile I had my head down on my knees and my arms were wrapped around my legs I was crying my heart out as I was crying my heart out I felt something nudged me and heard something whining I looked up and saw Kayla standing there in front of me looking concerned about me he put his paw on my shoulder and began licking my face and wrapped my arm around him petting him he knew I was upset and he was just trying to cheer me up

Hey Kayla I'm sorry if I don't seem like myself today I told him

He whined softly then continued licking my face then he laid down on my lap and I hold him in my arms I had my face buried in his fur still trying not to cry but I just couldn't help it after awhile we finally decided to go back Kayla was still staying in the cave for the time being when I got back John told me that he handled Steve and that Steve wasn't going to hack on me anymore we had dinner when I got back I was quiet throughout dinner I poked at my food I wasn't very hungry I decided to go to bed early but I couldn't sleep I kept having nightmares about what happened to my family two winters ago the nightmares got so bad that I threw myself off the bed I hit my head on the bedside table

Ohh I moaned softly rubbing my head while trying to sit up on the floor

John Chivato and my friend Buck who is a pony express rider came into my bedroom looking concerned about me I looked up at them knowing that I had a lot of explaining to do

Jose is everything alright what the bloody hell is going on? John asked

No John everything is not alright I don't feel good and I'm having nightmares nonstop about what happened to my family two winters ago I'm sorry I woke all of you up I answered

It's alright Chavez I know how you feel I've been nightmares about that day to Buck said

Yeah and I still have nightmares about my stepfather beating me so I know what it's like to have nightmares Chivato added

After awhile I was finally able to go back to sleep John had given me some milk some medicine to help me sleep I go back to sleep and slowly start to sleep peacefully
